This week’s dilemma:

“I don’t want to become that person who complains about their colleague all the time. But I’m not sure how much longer I can swallow it.”

In this minisode, we respond to a listener dealing with a subtle but relentless undermining dynamic at work. She’s sharing credit, staying calm, doing the work, while her colleague interrupts, dominates, and rewrites the narrative.

Even worse? When she finally brought it up to her manager, she was met with a shrug and a smile: “That’s just Sasha”.

If you’ve ever felt erased in plain sight or been told to “stay positive” while someone else takes up all the space, this one’s for you.
